synopsis
Russian-born American psychologist Urie Bronfenbrenner stated that human development is “powerfully shaped by conditions and events occurring during the historical period through which the person lives’’ (Bronfenbrenner, 1999). True to what Urie Bronfenbrenner has said, the pandemic that has been rocking the world since March 2020 continues to rapidly shape our attitudes, values, life and work orientations even as speak. The nature and impact of these influences on individuals, communities, societies and nations appear to be more worrisome than hope inducing. And no one knows how this will evolve and when this will end. Urie Bronfenbrenner noted in his ecological systems theory, culture changes people, and people change culture. When things are in a state of flux, as they are during the current pandemic, culture is an anchor which informs how leaders lead. Thinking about it from an organisational context, it appears that culture and leadership can play a huge role in helping individuals cope with these implications and lead healthy lives and make meaningful and sustainable contributions at work. So, what is the nature of organisational culture and leadership that will help and support employees in these complex times? CFI, MMA and KAS have come together to organise a panel discussion on this very subject - Culture, Leadership and the Pandemic.
